When the Firefly Music Festival released its 2015 lineup earlier this month, the first name was mysteriously blurred out, likely in an attempt to drum up some needed intrigue. Today the final headliner's name was released: Paul McCartney.

The Dover, Del., festival takes place June 18-21. McCartney joins a lineup that includes Kings of Leon, The Killers, Morrissey, Snoop Dogg, Foster the People, Zedd and more. The festival marks McCartney's first-ever performance in Delaware, according to Lauren King of festival production company Red Frog Events.
